Definitions
- the present invention relates to differential direct current amplification assemblies intended to amplify signals whose excursion to be measured is relatively slow and small and, in particular, lower than the error voltage introduced by the disturbances in the assembly. himself.
- the invention relates to an amplifier assembly intended to amplify the signal coming from a measurement bridge in which is incorporated at least one sensor of a parameter such as a temperature sensor, a strain gauge or the like.
- the object of the invention is to propose an amplifier assembly of the general type indicated above, making it possible, with a minimum number of components, moreover of commonly used types, to obtain an extremely low or even zero temperature drift, low consumption, a high rejection rate in common mode, low consumption as well as an extremely convenient gain adjustment possibility.
- the amplifier assembly comprising two operational cascade amplifiers whose non-inverting inputs are connected to the input terminals of the assembly, the first amplifier being looped back to its inverting input, while its output is connected to the non-inverting input of the second amplifier, the latter comprising a feedback loop which determines a predetermined gain, is characterized in that the non-inverting inputs of the two amplifiers are connected to said input terminals of the assembly by means of switching means to allow selectively reversing the polarity of this connection, and in that it further comprises means for determining successive operating cycles comprising a measurement cycle and a calculation cycle, a memory for storing during each operating cycle the signal of the second amplifier resulting from an input signal received in a first position of the means s switching and a calculation circuit which receives when said switching means are in a second position the output signal of said second amplifier to operate during the calculation cycle subtracting the stored signal and the second output signal from the second amplifier.
- the amplifier assembly comprises a first operational amplifier A1 to which a second operational amplifier A2 is connected in cascade.
- the non-inverting input a of the amplifier A1 is connected to a group 1 of reversing switches, while its inverting input b is connected to its output terminal c by a direct feedback loop 2.
- the non-inverting input a of the amplifier A2 is also connected to group 1 of reversing switches, while its inverting input b is connected to the output c of the first amplifier A1 through a resistor R1.
- the amplifier A2 is provided with a feedback loop 3 comprising a resistor R2 for adjusting the gain and a resistor R3.
- the output of this amplifier A2 is connected to an analog-digital converter 4.
- Group 1 reversing switches has four switches i1 to i4 which can be made conveniently using field effect transistors. They constitute a bipolar inverter of the differential voltage which is supplied to it on the input terminals b1 and b2 by a measurement bridge 5 which in the example described here is responsible for measuring a parameter whose evolution it is desired to study.
- This parameter can be any such as a temperature, a pressure, a mechanical stress or the like, measured for example using a resistance varying with the evolution of the parameter.
- a practical application of the invention can be the measurement of a tightening torque in an electric torque wrench provided with strain gauges mounted in one of the branches of the bridge. This therefore comprises in this case two gauges C1 and C2 as well as two fixed and equal resistors R4 and R5, although four gauges can also be used.
- amplifier assembly according to the invention can be used with other signal sources whether they are in the form of a measurement bridge or as a simple variable impedance.
- the amplifier A1 being looped back in unity gain, it ensures a high input impedance of the assembly.
- the amplifier assembly according to the invention also comprises a calculation circuit 5 provided with a clock circuit 6, a memory 7, a power switch 8 and a use circuit 9 which can be a light emitting diode display, for example.
- the power switch 8 which is connected to a power source V alim is controlled by a cycle signal SC which is applied to it by the clock circuit 6.
- the power switch is connected to the measuring bridge 5, to the amplifiers A1 and A2 and to the converter 4, so that these components are only supplied with power when the switch 8 is closed.
- the duty cycle of the cycle signal SC is chosen so as to supply these components only when a measurement is carried out, only the calculation circuit, the memory 7 and the display 9 being permanently supplied. This results in an extremely low consumption of the entire assembly.
- the amplifier A2 applies to the converter 4 a voltage VS1 of the form of the equation given above in which the term AV (2R / R1 + 1) is negative while when the closing signal F2 is high, the converter receives a voltage V S1 which has the same term but with a positive sign.
- the analog / digital converter 4 is controlled during each measurement to operate the digital conversion of the voltage V S1 or V S2 under the control of a start of conversion signal DB1 or DB2, supplied by the clock circuit 6, while that the result of each conversion is transferred to the calculation circuit 5 by an end of conversion signal FC1 or FC2 which the converter 4 applies to this same calculation circuit 5.
- the calculation circuit 5 operates the subtraction of the voltage V S1 previously stored in the memory 7 and of the voltage V S2 with:
- the duty cycle of switch 8 (signal SC) can be very low, that is to say 4 ms of active interval (composed of 2 ms for the measurement of the voltage V S1 and 2 ms for the measurement of the voltage V S2 ) for 46 ms of inactive interval during which the circuit 5 can perform the subtraction and transfer the result to the display 9.
- This results in a reduction of a factor 50/4 12.5 of the consumption of the assembly.
- the assembly does not include any isolation capacity which is usually necessary in amplifiers stabilized by a chopper.
